A Walking We Will Go

Out the door and down the street we go
A grand day as we go tallyho
Nose to the ground, and sniffing a mound
I’m on my leash, not going to the pound

Hydrant ahead, text message to send
Nice, I have email, I just pretend
Into a bush with snout all about
Calling card left, protruding my spout

Hiding all shame, some kicks of the grass
Some think polite and others think crass
Time to head back as all’s in its place
Retracing tracks, a rabbit I’ll chase.
